Post-Halving Dynamics

Definition

Post-halving dynamics describe the changes in market behavior and economic conditions that occur after a Bitcoin halving event. This refers to the period following a Bitcoin halving, where the reward for mining new blocks is cut in half, reducing the rate of new Bitcoin supply entering circulation. These dynamics often involve shifts in miner profitability, network security, and speculative investor activity. The reduced supply issuance can exert upward pressure on Bitcoin’s price, assuming constant or increasing demand.
